I was watching some of his earlier tape. He has some ball skills. If you recall, Hayward played off the ball most the time at Butler up until the 2nd half of his sophomore year.

Im not doubting that he can develop some ball skills, but he doesnt have them yet and the Hayward thing feels like a huge racial comparison. Dick is more of a pure shooter and off-ball player.

Right now the best Jazz player is a non-shot creating PF/C. They going to need some kind of PG play. I doubt Wallace makes it out of the lottery. Thin PG class.

I want to see the measurements on him... he does not look small. He might remind Ainge of a certain pg he had in Boston. Wallace looks like he plays bigger than a 6' 2" pg. If he is a legit 6' 4" then he can switch on to a lot of wings on defense. Not sure he has a dynamic offensive game but I like him quite a bit. If he plays bigger and shoots it well enough you can always run additional pgs with him and it can be really effective.

I mean, yeah they're both mid-western white dudes. They're also both 6'7" / 200-lb big off-guards who spot up and are similarly athletic on drives at the same age.

Hayward showed more shiftiness with the ball in his soph year. It's early, but yeah, Dick may be a better pure shooter.

this kind of take should have you removed from earth.lol
I am trying to believe a lot of these comments are sarcasm, but I am guessing you actually believe this is true.

I would draft at least 3 other players ahead of KO if I was starting a team with only the Jazz roster to select from. KO is not the "best" player lol
His game is far more impressive this season, given the freedom he has been given here, compared to any other time in his career.
But that is only a testiment to how valuable not having anyone to speak of outside of Kessler in front of you, in the rotation can be for anyone trying to break out. KO in many ways just like Marky just never had any clear paths before now.
I have seen this forever. one player goes down next man up and suddenly the next man is a hero not the bum someone like you normally labels them,

I would guess he is Maxey sized, maybe a bit bigger.

Bro, what kind of grass are you smoking right now? Do you know who Lauri Markkanen is?

He looks like he is solidly built... pgs that can play up on defense when they need to our pretty valuable. Running undersized pgs together that aren't that into defense is a concern. The shot is something to watch there but I like Wallace thus far.
